Very reliable and honest

I hired Mr. Faus to represent my son who was charged with a felony charge up to $30,000. I needed someone that would fight for my son and get these charges reduced. I read a Yelp review that raved about him. After calling him we talked for awhile and I knew he was going to fight for my son. Mr. Faus ...is very personable and does what he says he will do. I felt very confident that things would work out. It ended with a reduced charge. No trial which was great. I would highly recommend Mr. Faus.

Excellent attorney!

He cares, does the leg work, & fights for you! Tripple threat attorney! He's cutthroat on the courtroom when he needs to be, but suave as well! You won't go wrong with him.

You Won’t be Just Another Case

After reading all the positive reviews I chose Mr. Faus. From the moment I met him I knew I made the right decision. Mr. Faus is patient, kind, and sincere. He said he would defend me and get the best possible outcome. Even though the DA was adamant about punishing me, Mr. Faus fought for me each... and every court date. He ended up getting me a dismissal. If you want a sincere, honest, and empathetic attorney, trust me when I say, Mr. Salvador Faus is the man to call. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Faus
